June wrap up
Posted in mason-dixon kal, project spectrum, finished objects on Jun 30th, 2006
This is the last project, for Project Spectrum in Blue and for June. I cast on this morning and have worked on it off and on all day, and here is the finished product.
pattern: Mason-Dixon Washcloth
yarn:  Lion Cotton Americana
cast on/off: June 30th
notes: While I was making my first Mason-Dixon washcloth I thought I had miscounted on the eyelet row because my eyelets kept coming up uneven between the bobbles. I was able to even them out and continued on to finish. On this one I ran into the same trouble. I looked, I counted, I charted it out . . . the way it is written you come out with uneven eyelets.  I switched to:ÂÂ
[(k1, yo, k2tog) 3 times, k5, (k1, yo, k2tog) 3 times] 6 timesÂÂ
and the eyelets are even between the bobbles.
After casting on 150sts
this is all the tail I had left, yikes!
In the last week I have knit up a few more of the Ballband Dishcloths.

yarn: (top to bottom)
    Lion Cotton Morning Glory Blue & Sugar n Cream Cornflower
    Lion Cotton Americana & Sugar n Cream Cornflower

note: I finished another one in Sugar n Cream Ecru & Cornflower, but it is at the LYS as a sample for the Mason-Dixon book.
